The Continuing Commission

Luke 24:47-49 We return to our Lord’s Great Commission, which you’ll find in Luke 24:44, Luke 24:44, and through verse 49. This is the epilogue of the Gospel of Luke that really is summing up the first volume for us. And then Luke points us ahead to the second volume, the book of Acts. The theme of the first volume, which we learned about last week, is certainty in the truth. Like I say, we learned about it last week.…

The Rich Young Ruler, Part 2

Luke 18:22-23 Well, you can turn in your Bibles to Luke 18 as we continue Jesus’ encounter with the rich young ruler. The rich young ruler and Jesus. Last week I introduced the sermon with a question for you to think about, and it was a question that caused you to reflect on your personal evangelism. And I’d like to do something similar this morning and ask you to consider another question. This time, not so much doing, dealing with…

The Rich Young Ruler, Part 1

Luke 18:18-21 Well, we are back in Luke’s gospel this morning, and we’re looking at Luke 18, verse 18.

But we will begin by reading the whole chapter, starting in verse 1. 2 Corinthians 4:1. Paul writes, “Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart. But we…

The Glory of Gospel Ministry

2 Corinthians 4:1-6 Find your way to 2 Corinthians 4:1. Paul’s second epistle to the Corinthians is really the most autobiographical of all his epistles. That letter reveals Paul’s deep affection for the Corinthians. It gives us insight into what he suffered as an apostle, as Jesus promised him. And we see in the suffering and in the trial and affliction, we see what’s revealed is the heart of this apostle. And you can see the work of grace of…

Joy in the Wealth of Poverty

Luke 6:20 This morning, we’re really continuing a message we began last week. We want to understand more fully, more completely what Jesus meant by what he said and the implications for us. It’s been 12 years since sociologist Christian Smith published his book called, Soul Searching: The Religious and Spiritual Lives of American Teenagers. The book came out in, back in 2005, and it revealed not a pretty picture, the, revealed the spiritual condition of America’s, many of them,…
